Title: Dragon Quest Swords (new screens)

It looks hot. Gameplay seems really nice to me. I love the idea of an on-rails game.

I've seen some youtube videos of Kenshin Dragon Quest, and it looks so much fun. I'm sad I don't know Japanese or that it was never released outside of Japan. But people are saying this is going to be a lot better and will have a lot more depth. I like the audio as well, they used some for the website. I love the sounds.

Can't wait! :-[

I want to be in controle. An on-rail game just feels so...restricted. It's even worse than turn based.

Is this game turn based too? Jesus...

Panzer Dragoon Orta may be great, but it would be better if it were a "normal" game, not on-rails..

I don't get that though. Panzer Dragoon is all about shooting and kicking ass, rails allows this non stop. That's what rails are good for: non stop action.

Yeah, but sometime you miss something and want to go back. Especiall in an adventure game.

On rail doesn't allow you to do that.

Die Hard Trilogy on Ps1 and Time Crisis are great on-rail shooters though. I don't know if an on-rail RPG will work...

Killer 7 was on rails and it allows you to go back. Many games like Panzer Dragoon Orta are like that because they are designed for multiple play throughs and emphasize replayability.
